UdpClient ...can I make it time out?

Sometimes when I try to connect ...it takes a long time...

(seems like its slow in general)


is there a way to make it time out?
Heres the code im using...

VB Code:

Private Sub FindPlayer(ByVal IP As String, ByVal Port As Integer, ByVal Player As String)
        Dim WS As New UdpClient
        Try
            'Dim Send As String
            WS.Connect(IP, Port)
            Dim Status As [Byte]() = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("\players\")
            WS.Send(Status, Status.Length)
 
            Dim RemoteIpEndPoint As New IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 0)
            Dim receiveBytes As [Byte]() = WS.Receive(RemoteIpEndPoint)
            Dim returnData As String = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(receiveBytes)
            TextBox4.Text = returnData.ToString()
            If InStr(returnData.ToString, Player) <> 0 Then
                MsgBox("yes")
            Else
                MsgBox("No")
            End If
            WS.Close()
        Catch Ex As Exception
            MsgBox(Ex.ToString())
        End Try
    End Sub

Thanks

anyone???

im gonna have to do some winsock soon, i looked at it before and it all confused me. anyways i think i saw on system.net.sockets.socket that they have a .BeginConnect method that works asynchronously and then you provide a callback function that would in turn call .EndConnect

hmmm...thanks ;)
